Easter Bunny

Before you look at the pictures, a little back story. We get to the Easter Bunny when there is no line except for the little adorable boy about 10-12 months old sitting on it's lap. The boy is laughing hysterically and we think this is a good sign that Riley won't have a problem with it. So we walk up to the bunny and place her on it's lap.

That is when the bunny moved....

For the life of my little girl, she could NOT figure out why this big stuff animal could move and was trying to touch her.

She wouldn't even let down her elbows for fear of provoking this scary animal.

At first glance this looks like a semi normal picture with her offering someone off camera an egg, but if you concentrate on the eyebrows you will notice that this isn't an innocent gesture, it's a bargaining tool. "I will give you this egg if you please save me from this over sized stuffed moving thing that I don't even know what sound it makes"

Maybe if it had been an Easter Elephant all would have gone smoother.

**Will update in five years to see if there has been any lasting traumatising affects**

Down on the farm

All in a days work...

This is one of the new calf's on the Hofeditz farm. Born yesterday, he is one of five bulls born in three days. It's been a busy Spring already.

This is Houston. He is 30 years old! (Wave to the camera, Riley)

This was the first bull of the season. How cute is he!

These are the newest sheep on Aunt Jean's farm. Totally adorable. I could snuggle with one of these for hours!

Man, farm life (when your only visiting) is great!!!

Hair-do of the year

Every one should have a hair-do like this!

Awe, so pretty.

Jewelry

Here are a couple of earrings I have finished for our show in June.

Okay, Okay! I will type!

Okay, for everyone that is on my FaceBook page, sorry, you have already seen these pictures... For everyone else I thought I would share these. My grandpa had to stay over night in the hospital (nothing serious) but he asked us to watch his dog, Sugar.

Sugar, a very "understanding" dog, took Riley with a grain of salt (unlike our own dog who has jealousy issues.) Sugar also is box trained which made for really easy nights for me! Riley got a huge kick out of a dog that actually liked/tolerated her. Especially when she would get kissed by the dog, which would lead into a roar of belly laughs.

But then, when she was bored with that (which if you have/had and 18 month old you know how this can happen) she would move on to the box!

"Hey, Sugar! Whatcha up to?"

"Hey, mom, me and Sugar are going on a ride."


"Bye, Sugar, this is your stop!"

"Okay, mom, I am off to work!" (What you can't see is that she packed her play purse, her play phone and her play credit card in this 'car')

And this is right after she told me "Bye Bye" and locked herself in.

Note to Bloggers - Sugar is very attached to her box and was about to pee in the floor at this point. She didn't know what to do about someone else taking it over and making it into either a car or an office (the jury is still out on that one.)

Next to (hopefully) come is the night that we/Riley got bored and made me put about a thousand hair clips in her hair just so she could take them out one by one until she was clean of them, just to make me put them all in again.

Hey, if it entertains an 18myo then so be it. Any one else got any suggestions?

TTFN, Jamie

Sorry Everybody...

Sorry if you have been waiting on me to add a new post! I apparently am really bad at this. I have uploaded all of my pictures from my camera to the computer, but haven't found time at home to work on an actual blog. I hope to have one really soon.
